October Rage formed in 2008 on the Central Coast of New South Wales Australia by brothers Nick and Will Roberts. They were winners in a songwriting competition for Sydney's TrippleM radio station in 2010 and won the opportunity to open for Bon Jovi in Sydney. Following this taste of success recorded the band's debut album, Outrage, released on iTunes September 2011. "Outrage" lead to the "Outrage tour" of the U.S.A 2012-13.
Nick and William Roberts began the project with a single minded purpose of creating hard hitting, head banging tunes, stadium rock anthems and majestic ballads to satisfy even the most avid rock fan.
Returning from an inspiring trip to L.A in late 2008, the brothers set about finding musicians to compliment their style of songwriting. Drummer Rory Bratby and Guitarist Tim Ciantar were those musicians.
The newly formed October Rage would travel to Melbourne to record their debut single "Silver Line" with producer Adrian Hannan (Taxiride, The Androids, at The Song Store. The track would be mastered by Martin Pullan (Deep Purple, Ritchie Blackmore) at Edensound.
October Rage would enter "Silver Line" in a competition held by Australian radio station Triple M Network and win to play along with Bon Jovi on their world tour at the Sydney Football Stadium in December 2010.
May 2011 Blackstar Amplification officially endorses the band.
July 2011 the band record the debut album "Outrage" in Melbourne at The Song Store with Adrian Hannan producing and mastering by Martin Pullan at Edensound.
